[QUOTE="caincha, post: 999501, member: 143958"] Ok, what i want to do is buy some coolers more efficient (runs faster, more CFM, etc) than the ones that came inside my iMac so I can get them to an Apple Store and ask them to change it for me (I'm not [B]that[/B] good to change it myself :) ). Anyway, here are a few pics that I got on a Google search so you can get the idea: [IMG]http://s1.guide-images.ifixit.com/igi/xIZ4ITcSoMyPkQBe.large[/IMG] [IMG]http://s2.guide-images.ifixit.com/igi/ORGLbRk3EyHFwK2L.large[/IMG] [IMG]http://s1.guide-images.ifixit.com/igi/Gq3aIMtYBRiCEMHR.large[/IMG] This last one is upside down. I want to replace those 3 coolers that can be seem on the first picture, but the most important one would the CPU cooler for sure (seem on the left in the first 2 pics). So, are there any coolers that would fit there for what I want to do? I was thinking that maybe I could buy spare parts for the 24" model, but I don't know if it would fit or if it would be any different than the 20"model: [url=http://cgi.ebay.com/iMac-24-for-parts-speakers-camera-plastics-cables_W0QQitemZ380205760452QQcmdZViewItemQQptZApple_Desktops?hash=item5886077fc4]iMac 24" for parts. speakers, camera, plastics, cables - eBay (item 380205760452 end time Feb-17-10 13:15:47 PST)[/url] Any ideas?
